I am totally disgusted with windows 3.0 and sdk programming?
Why, because my cost for hardware (speed and memory and extra
monitor) has gone up!  

I can say that after 4 years of serious SDK windows programming, I still
like X (Interviews and Motif) much better because of the feel.
What is development in the OS2/PM environment like?

Does OS2/PM do preemptive scheduling?  What is debugging like?
Do I need a dual display?   How is the OO PM environments like
Smalltalk, stable?

Now that I have the horsepower for doing windows stuff, it occurs to 
me that I can and may switch to OS2.
